Doom 3: GX2 Mod Presentation / Comparison

My Doom 3 mod is complete. I decided to name it GX2 because of the upcoming GeForce 9800GX2 release. This video shows you the main differences and changes between the mod and vanillia Doom 3. Mostly its about the graphics and effects that have been improved. All walls have new high resolution Textures with Parallax Maps and Shaders such as Bloom wich add nice reflactions on the steel surfaces. All monsters have new skins with higher resolution and other effects. Yet I tried not to go too far off the original ideas, since I think Doom 3 is a good game. The gameplay is also a BIG change in this mod. My goal was to make the game more exciting. I changed things like the Imps, they now have more health and do more damage. So now when you see a Imp, you will be as scared as if it was a Hellknight. But I balanced it out, you will have more ammo, the guns are a bit better and med packs give a bit more health. I cant get into too much detail cause I changed a LOT, but its all very well balanced. The game is just way more excitning now and you're constantly scared cause you never know what jumps out of the next dark corner and those monsters are now able to do some SERIOUS damage :P I also changed many smaller and less importnant things, such as the decals. With other words: Bulletholes and blood will never disappear, also the used bullets and shells that fall on the ground will stay forever. The bodies of the monsters will not disapear anymore as well. Various changes on the sound have been made. I changed lots of impact sounds and noises. I increased the volume of the real scary sound effect, so when you hear them now, you almost jump outta your seat . :P Monster AI has been altered, so if a monster gets hit by another monster, they will fight eachother, untill either one of them dies or the player interferences. I could go on for a few hours like that, but to make a logn story short: This is Doom 3 the way it should have been. It looks better, it sounds better and its a lot more scarrier. :P Cheers!
